Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare the necessary products. Boil the chicken fillet in advance for 30-40 minutes, cool. Wash the greens, lettuce leaves, pomegranate, tangerine. Chop nuts or buy already peeled ones. Disassemble the pomegranate into grains.
Step 2:
Fry walnuts in a dry hot frying pan until slightly browned, cool. You can peel them with your hands after to remove excess skin.
Step 3:
Disassemble the boiled chicken fillet into long fibers. Cut the lettuce leaves into large pieces with your hands.
Step 4:
Chop the greens (this time I have dill and parsley) finely. Chop the toasted walnuts coarsely.
Step 5:
For dressing in a separate container, mix the matzoni (natural yogurt, sour cream or mayonnaise) with ground cumin, dried garlic powder, salt to taste (if the chicken was boiled in unsalted water).
Step 6:
Mix the ingredients of the dressing thoroughly. Divide the tangerine into slices, peel it from the films.
Step 7:
Add the dressing to the salad. Mix everything carefully.
Step 8:
Put lettuce leaves on a wide flat dish.
Step 9:
Put the salad on top, decorate it with herbs, tangerine slices, pomegranate seeds. The salad is ready!
A very successful combination of products gives a magical taste. Chicken perfectly harmonizes with tangerines, pomegranate and delicious dressing. By the way, garlic and cumin, given their decent volume indicated by me, do not dominate the dressing - the chicken seems to absorb their taste and aroma.
For the first time I tried a very similar salad in my favorite restaurant of Georgian cuisine (then I often ordered it), only there were no tangerines in it. And then I found the same recipe on the Internet, only with tangerines. I believe that their presence enriches the taste of the salad. I'm making a recipe with you!
Most of the time spent on salad preparation is spent on cooking chicken fillet. And then everything is like notes: in a matter of minutes, simple and easy!
Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
